Address DER challenges on your grid

Controller confusion (sometimes called controller conschmoller disorder) arises when attempting to determine which controller will be most effective at curing DER challenges on your grid. Is a microgrid controller best? Or perhaps a distributed energy resource management system (DERMS) would be better.

Is your utility experiencing any of these issues caused by the rapid increase of DERs on your grid?

  • Grid stability issues caused by renewables’ intermittency
  • Load management concerns caused by wildly variable power generation and consumption patterns
  • Current or threat of service outages related to voltage, thermal, or frequency constraint violations by DERs

You are not alone. The right controller can cure several if not all the grid challenge ailments listed above, and our free workbook walks you through how to select the best one for your situation.
